Force Redux

El Super is not for everyone 😃

Please accept my thanks as well @Underfyre

Nice to see you back @Sunsette 🙂🙂

Ninjutsu recommended, or Super Reflexes. I like defense on sentinels. I like resist-based sets on Tankers (or brutes) due to their larger health pool. That said, you really can make anything work well if it fits concept, aesthetic, and you put some work/influence into it and manage your play style/tactics.

I like it! Ty @biostem, I just tweaked it to a shorter version of the short, and perfecto! 🙂

Phantasmal Force mastermind. Six identical-seemimg versions of oneself. Based off of Illusion Control's Phantom Army. Mix of melee and ranged, using elemental attacks. MM attacks are elemental too. Mix of resists and defense. The T7 summons a bunch of phantasmal clones that chain around attacking things (smashing into them) or healing minions/MM (reintegration), depending on what they target.

Hi folks, looking for the costume gurus to help bring something to life. I have a character, Rising Moon, who is a Korean super heroine (super reflex/martial arts Tanker) who relocated to Paragon with W.I.S.D.O.M., but is not a part of that group. I feel rather 'blah' about my costume which is white spandex with a blue/red yin-yang symbol on the chest. Anyone willing to give a fresh approach to a costume pretty much as a tabula rasa because I'm open for anything as long as it is feminine and allows for freedom of movement?

Also new names I just found free, so advertising for anyone looking for names: Sewer Mouth (please take Water blast and Bile Spray 😄 ) Mona Lisa Smile Chromed Dome Legal Discovery Claws N Effect Live Wired Virtual Warrior Sky Flight Stalwart Heart Jovian Son

Some names released to the wild for Everlasting's lovely peeps: Cloud Cuckoo Lander Conception Ms. Conception Hit-Woman (I also have Hit Woman, no hyphen, but not willing to give it up just yet) Vitruvian Woman Titanesque Death Notice

I hear ya, not giving up favorite names either. But I got a number of others I don't mind releasing 🙂👍🏻

Nice @macskull, that's good community. Same here folks. I've given up names before. I'm only dead set on about 12 of my 50 or so characters, so try me out.

Let's see...how about for characters who have powers that alter their physical gender: Hex Switch (gender flipping witch) Hermaphroditia (personification of a greek god/dess) Transenlightenment (a super evolved being) Geminatrix (two costumes, one male, one female, swaps between them) That's a few thoughts in a few minutes. I hope they help with your character! Disclaimer: I provided a mostly comic book powers approach to naming. The names don't touch on some real life trans issues related to dysphoria or gender identity. In my real life, most (not all) trans persons I know would simply run with a regular super hero name like Badger Girl or Speed Demon, if asked.

So... how about them Bears, eh? 🏈🏈🏈

I will always love you Snarky. And it has nothing to do with your villainous vampire mesmerizing powers!

Cap, I usually like your posts. I don't think we're going to see eye to eye on this topic though. And it feels like you're just trolling. Best of luck.

Enjoy ☺️

I still want your stuff.

Great points @nzer. The demonstratable truth is that it's actually not hard to come up with a good name. I've cited several threads in these forums that show that appropriate names and good names are easily available. I also demonstrated about a couple dozen names I was able to come up with in a few minutes that are all viable good names, without any tricks, without any funky spelling. There's a lot of moaning I can't get a name. What people actually mean is I can't get a specific name and I can't be bothered to ask for help or trying to come up with something else. It's laziness, entitlement, and opportunism. There's plenty of proof there's no difficulty in getting a good name. There is every proof that some people don't want the solution.

I had no idea 😂😂 (I was just looking for an alternate to 'Captain Canada')

@Captain Fabulous If you are having problems coming up with names, I'm more than happy to help. Just ask, and I'll do my best. As you can see from my previous posts in this thread, it's not hard or time consuming to find names that are sensical and colorful. I was surprised with what I could come up with! And the are multiple threads and players who both demonstrate that good names are possible, and people are willing to help, much as people get help with costume design. Not everyone had the same talents. I'm always amazed at Player2's costumes, for example. Mine are rather meh. This is a great community. Just as with quests, the market, costumes, etc the community shows support for those who need help. Here's another example thread about good names are still possible:

"No one is entitled to their [infamy, enhancements, badges, xp, base, SG, merits, prismatics, recipes...]. If you don't actively use it you should lose it if someone else wants it. It's that simple." I'm game. Sign me up for your stuff when you leave for a while.

By the way, I took Liminal Woman, was too good to avoid for a teleporter. These other names are free to good home. Enjoy.

Here's some more as of 07:50 PM: Venusian Manhunter Carbon Steele Sacred Scarab Krimson Krush (could not get Crimson Crush) Vegetation Ignobled Battle Shrike (could not get War Shrike) Decrepify Captain Gemini Again, took a few minutes, no fancy word tricks, no thesaurus, no foreign words. But hey, I'm told good names are all gone so we need to pillage them.

Let's see, I think we all know that some names are just not feasible, such as Fire Man and stuff, but here's some reasonable names I came up with that are free on Everlasting: Desacratrix Liminal Woman Grimm Riding Hood Captain Vancouver Water Weaver Good Earth Phantastico Speed Chaser Angel Choir Bad Beats Mister Strong Brother Barometer Indivisible Girl Magical Trix Tidal Mistress These were free as of 7:40 PM Mountain Time on 1/31/24. That's literally a 5 minute attempt. No hyphens. No use of capital I for L tricks, no dots, no Xs. I didn't use a thesaurus or even try to use foreign words. Yes, I did not get Water Man or Tide Girl, but I got Water Weaver. I could not get Tide Mistress, but with a microsecond of thought and a few ergs of energy I came up with Tidal Mistress, instead. Was that actually hard??? I also want to point out that Player2 routinely comes up with great names and posts them with his costumes in the Post Your Best Costume threat in Art, so somehow they manage to work that out. Likewise, the threat that posts names released to the public server also exists. What exactly is the issue? Is this or is this not a game that cultivates the imagination, such as in our costume creator? Are we really running low on names, or are we simply appealing to the lowest common denominator? People can always ask for help with names, too, if they are stumped. I'm not seeing a problem folks. Go use your brain. It's freaking easy to get a name. It just may not be the one attached to someone else's character or your initial attempt. But one can manage around it with satisfaction.

So everyone's commentary has made me think about testing out what it's like to create names. So give me a bit, I'm going to do an experiment and see what names I can come up with and I'll post them and you guys can see what's available at least on Everlasting.
